I never used to have issues with this bar, but when I got my current phone it's using a version of Android that defaults to that newer bar-less gesture based control scheme. I hate that new system so I changed it back to the bar.

But now I have this problem where I frequently get accidental presses on the nav bar while typing. It's a daily occurrence that I will accidentally hit the home button while typing anything, which is annoying as hell. This never used to happen before.

Is it maybe just the particular phone I have, or has anyone else noticed the same issue? It's obnoxious enough that I keep looking into getting a device with physical keyboard.

So do I -- even though it is too big i use it one handed anyway, because getting a different phone isn't in the budget
